    SCP2 deficiency significantly reduces intestinal cholesterol absorption, and SCP2 knockdown in intestinal epithelial cells reduces cholesterol uptake. A, C57BL/6 (WT) or SCP2−/− mice were injected intravenously with the lipoprotein lipase inhibitor tyloxapol (500 mg/kg body weight) and gavaged with [3H]cholesterol in olive oil (2 μCi in 200 μl) after 5 min. Intestinal cholesterol absorption was assessed by monitoring the radiolabel associated with plasma collected at the time of euthanasia. Data are presented as plasma DPM per microliter of plasma for the indicated genotype and sex. B, the entire length of the intestine, from the base of the stomach to the tip of the cecum, was divided into four equal parts (P1 to P4), and total RNA was isolated. The mRNA levels of indicated genes were determined by real-time PCR as described under “Experimental procedures” and normalized to the housekeeping gene β-actin. C, total protein extracts from ileum segments P1 to P4 of WT and SCP2−/− mice as well as the colon (C) were analyzed by Western blotting for expression of SCP2; β-actin was used as the loading control. Human intestinal epithelial cells (HT-29) were transfected with scrambled or SCP2-specific siRNA as described under “Experimental procedures.” Total protein or RNA was extracted and used to determine the levels of SCP2. D, top, a representative Western blot. Bottom, levels of SCP2 mRNA quantified by quantitative PCR and SCP2 protein by densitometric analyses of Western blots.

    Effects of SCP2 deficiency on cholesterol accumulation in and cholesterol efflux from macrophages. Thioglycolate-elicited macrophages were isolated from C57BL/6 (WT) and SCP2−/− mice and incubated with AcLDL (25 μg/ml) for 48 h. A and B, following two washes with PBS, cells were either fixed and stained with Oil Red O (A) or used for total lipid extraction and cholesterol mass measurement (B). Total cholesterol mass was normalized to total cellular protein, and data (mean ± S.D., n = 6) are presented as nanomoles per milligram of protein. C, total protein extracts of macrophages were subjected to Western blot analyses to assess SR-A expression; β-actin was used as a loading control. D, for measurement of cholesterol efflux, cells were loaded with AcLDL and labeled with [3H]-cholesterol for 48 h. Following a 24-h equilibration, cholesterol efflux to 10% FBS in the growth medium was monitored over time. Data (mean ± S.D., n = 6) are presented as percent efflux. *, p < 0.05.

    Figure Lengend Snippet: Effects of SCP2 deficiency on cholesterol accumulation in and cholesterol efflux from macrophages. Thioglycolate-elicited macrophages were isolated from C57BL/6 (WT) and SCP2−/− mice and incubated with AcLDL (25 μg/ml) for 48 h. A and B, following two washes with PBS, cells were either fixed and stained with Oil Red O (A) or used for total lipid extraction and cholesterol mass measurement (B). Total cholesterol mass was normalized to total cellular protein, and data (mean ± S.D., n = 6) are presented as nanomoles per milligram of protein. C, total protein extracts of macrophages were subjected to Western blot analyses to assess SR-A expression; β-actin was used as a loading control. D, for measurement of cholesterol efflux, cells were loaded with AcLDL and labeled with [3H]-cholesterol for 48 h. Following a 24-h equilibration, cholesterol efflux to 10% FBS in the growth medium was monitored over time. Data (mean ± S.D., n = 6) are presented as percent efflux. *, p < 0.05.

    Article Snippet: Cells were transfected with a complex consisting of SCP2 siRNA (Santa Cruz Biotechnology, catalog no. sc-44636) and polyamidoamine (PAMAM) G5 (Sigma-Aldrich).

    Effects of SCP2 deficiency on biliary bile acid and cholesterol secretion. A and B, gall bladder bile was collected at the time of euthanasia, and the total volume was noted. Biliary bile acids (BA), cholesterol, and phospholipids (PL) were estimated as described under “Experimental procedures.” Data are presented as total bile acids (nanomoles) or FC (micrograms) in the bile normalized to total phospholipids (micrograms) in A and B, respectively.
